Tauern cycle path for families

Take a walk today to see Europe’s highest waterfalls.

Hotel (example): Klockerhaus

Leaving the Krimml waterfalls behind you, you will cycle along the Salzach river. From the bike path, you can see the snow-capped mountains. The valley gets wider and wider allowing you to comfortably ride over green meadow to Mittersill and Stuhlfelden. As you are in the National Park, you can also visit the “Nationalparkwelten” (National Park Worlds) museum.

Hotel (example): Flatscher

From Oberpinzgau we continue towards Mittelpinzgau. The region here knows how to impress with its particularly lush flora and fauna. Authentic cuisine and unadulterated customs make this region particularly lovable. Once in Kaprun, a visit to the high mountain reservoirs is a special experience.

Hotel (example): Martini

Take the opportunity for a refreshing dip in Lake Zell. You will soon arrive in Saalfelden having cycled via the castle village of Maishofen and Maria Alm with its well-known pilgrimage church. The summer toboggan run is great fun for kids and adults.

Hotel (example): Ritzenhof 

The cycle path along the Saalach river leads you to the impressive Seisenbergklamm gorge and the Lamprechtshöhle (Europe’s deepest cave). The well-known chocolate manufacturer “Berger” is located in Lofer. Re-energised, you cycle a little further to the tranquil village of Unken.

Hotel (example): Kirchenwirt

You continue on the bike path running along the Saalach into the little German corner. Here, the next sweet temptation awaits - Konditorei Reber, a cake shop. You are sure to have burnt the extra calories by the time you arrive in Salzburg.  Your children will love the water games at Hellbrunn Palace. Plan time for a visit to Mozart’s birthplace too.

Hotel (example): Ganslhof
